Cubs Tickets On Sale Info (SEE FIRST POST FOR TIPS/LINK)

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Still waiting on my 3rd E-mail confirmation. My CC looks to be charged as my available credit available is about the difference between what it started at and how much I spent on tickets today. I'm guessing the E-mails take longer as the day goes on.

 

Last year, one of my emails came really late. I haven't even checked for mine yet.

so sounds like everyones done pretty well?

 

It appears. I've had one window open awhile and now a second and there are no takers. So either everyone is done or isn't having any problems getting through.

 

And still only listing Opener, all three Sox, and 8/9 as sold out. Bleacher availability is getting scarce though.

 

The nine packs may have reduced some of the demand on other games today.

 

8/10 and 9/12 (both cards) are sold out too

 

Looks like I picked the right games to buy.

 

Also, I'm willing to trade bleachers to Cubs vs Cards to anyone who can get me good seats to Cubs vs Cards on July 4th in St. Louis.

 

Those are even tougher to get.

that's weird the 21st is sold out, when i got 6 bleacher tix it was numbered 405-410, so i assumed there were plenty of seats left.

No one needs any more?

Maybe they are counting backwards because I was getting Rockie's tickets that were in the 3000's after online tix were on sale for less then an hour

I think that is how they do it.

still lots of memorial day tickets onsale vs the dodgers 5/26...people forget about that day.

[zamiano]

Todays bounty:

 

Three tickets to the Rockies/Cubs game, Sat. May 31, section 226, total of $125.27

Four tickets to the White Sox/Cubs game, Sat. June 21, section 506(but 3rd row), $101.86

Three tickets to the Cardinals/Cubs game, Sun. August 10, section 528, $83.27 (could end up being Sunday night game on ESPN)

 

Wow, that's a lot of money, but I've never been to a Cubs/Cards or Cubs/Sox game, should be fun.

I'm 2 away from the 42 max, so I'm done even though I have 2 windows currently open.

[nilodnayr]

Well I hope everyone got all the tickets they wanted!!!

 

For the record, I rocked it with both IE and firefox. Firefox with tab manager is definitely the way to go (except on a mac where I couldnt figure out how to open up more than one tab). I was working on my one computer with firefox for quite a while but then turned to my other with IE and out of the 30 windows I had open, 6 or so had gotten through. A better percentage than firefox, but I easily had over 200 tabs open on firefox...I was getting through way faster than I could deal with.

ha, i tried to get bleacher tix for the 9/19 cards game, and after trying a few times to submit my order, it kicked me back into the vwr

I used firefox with about 60 tabs on the desktop and IE with about 30 windows open on the laptop. I was about 50-50 with each one, though the laptop did get through first.

 

I just helped Treeman score some tix and now have two windows open. PM with a cell if you need tix. I can't buy any more and don't mind helping out.

Well, I did about as well as I could have hoped except for an 80 minute drought after the first half-hour. But I was able to get back in and get cheap seats to the Memorial Day and Labor Day games.

 

Time to restart my computer so it doesn't take 5 minutes to print things out.

[wekse]

[brint]

i just started at 11 and got 4 seats (granted they are in the pole sections) to memorial day.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'm going to wait a few more minutes before shutting down and heading to lunch. Anyone need these windows, pm me with your cell and I'll give ya a call.

I am officially done... for now.

 

Once those auctions start up for the seats directly behind home plate though, I'll be buying a couple of those. Those were the best seats I ever had... it really was a religious experience.

I hope to get through on those as well. I'd like to get a pair of those for one of the games I already plan to attend.

Absolutely make sure that you do. Words don't even begin to describe it.
